Hi Guys,

Before we get too romantic, it should be pointed out that, with only occasional exceptions, the division's operations in Yugoslavia and Greece were essentially little more than pushing at an open door. Credit where credit is duue, though, its proved very adept at this.

Cheers,

Sid.

Please note that, of course, most of the shown photographs were made by official SS-Kriegsberichter troops.
